Vantaggi
Good pay, generous vacation, matching retirement, decent opportunities for outside training when the company is in good financial shape (currently it is not). Work life balance is excellent for some individuals.
Svantaggi
The company does not seem to attract "the best and the brightest." The retention rate is unusually high, which in some ways works against the organization. There is a sense of entitlement with many employees who seem to be just showing up for the pay check and will only exert the minimal effort required to fly under the radar. The focus on work life balance creates an environment where management will not address issues related to performance or attendance. There are too many people who seem to be just trying to hang on until they can reach retirement age. The culture feels stodgy, out of step, and slow to change.
